Description
Messages: 0
I am looking to hire an Information Marketing Manager to help me set up the affiliate program software and get everything ready to go. This position could just as easily be called an Affiliate Program Manager.

The Information Marketing Manager will be responsible for helping me run the affiliate program and manage our Information Marketing business (creating, marketing and managing the approximately 200 hours of real estate courses that we have).

You will be helping to directly market the real estate courses we have via our network of almost 300 real estate investor websites including LearnToBeRich.com, RealEstateInvestorCookbook.com, AnalyzedDeals.com, OfferGenerator.com, TopSecretCourses.com and 280 city specific Real Estate Resources websites.

As our Information Marketing Manager, you will be:

Placing free ads to find affiliates to sell our real estate courses.
Placing free ads to hire copywriters who will write articles and ads for the real estate courses we are selling.
Place the articles and ads that the copywriters write on our network of real estate investor websites with the copywriter’s affiliate order link on it so that they get credit for any sales they generate from their articles and ads.
And mostly: creating resources, procedures and other helpful and motivational tools for helping the copywriters and affiliates make more money.
Helping set up and handling questions and concerns via an on-line discussion form for our affiliates and copywriters.
And in general, make our Information Marketing business a success.

Recommended skills:

Excellent command of English both typing and talking.
Basic HTML a huge plus.
Knowledge of real estate investing a huge plus.
Knowledge of internet marketing/SEO a huge plus.
We use 1ShoppingCart.com to run our affiliate program. So knowledge of that would be a plus.
We use B2evolution for most of our blogs. So knowledge of that would be a plus.
We do have a couple blogs that we use WordPress on, so that would also help but not a lot.

I would prefer to have someone that has experience and has been successful at implementing an affiliate program.

We only want to use 100% above board marketing. No black hat or even gray hat marketing strategies please. We want a long term, sustainable business model.

If you have questions, please let me know and I can add, edit, enhance or delete from this.
